    These speed paints are great. They came out during a period when I wasn't actively modelling, so I didn't know about them. When I tried them for the first time, I was really, really surprised at the result I got. Didn't take much extra effort to get my mini looking good, and it instilled confidence in me to try painting more figures, and figures with more and more details.

    The fact that you can remove speed paints with a damp brush up to almost 6 hours later? That’s actually pretty cool. I would Use them like watercolors or gouache and go darker than I need and then remove some off the highest points or reactivates it with lighter colors for easy blending🤔 looks very interesting to me. 👍🏼

    MegaSets were all already sold out when I went to order... so I had to settle with a starter set and individuals of each one missing. I'll have to see how well the magic blue matches "Reaper Dragon Blue" to see if I can get away with using it for the rest of my Ultra Marine Army, but mostly looking forward to getting to the Crisis Protocol minis I've had knocking around since Xmas. Being able to paint up 3D prints quickly will make for more colorful DnD games as well!

    I only have the starter set for these and tried them out a week ago on the miniatures for the Unsettled board game. I found that the gray in the starter set over plain white primer (which was how these paints were originally promoted) game out too light with very little variation. Saw a video ( might have been Goobertown) using a black base coat with white dry brush , similar to your method. Too dark. I ended up using a Uniform Gray base coat, then a white dry brush. Came out pretty nice. Not nearly as good as yours but decent. I didn’t know about the matte coat step, though I was using primer and a dry brush and not air, so I don’t think I had any issues with messing up those coats. Still, I want to lie these paints very much but I think I need more experience with them first. Also, the different colors behave differently from what I’ve seen; some work better than others I think.

I did an Army Painter Speedpaint Tutorial search (because the one coat and done is appealing for my gaming purposes), and I'm over 1/2 way through the video and haven't seen the Speedpaints used yet. I thought it was just prime and go. And you're using all these terms like glaze, matte finish (is that something like a varnish to protect the primer?), and mixing stuff in caps and I'm totally lost lol.

    Great tutorial but I am still hesitant to buy these paints since the colors all seem to be very bright and give minis a cartoonish look if you know what I mean. It works for Space Marines but I would like to see a tutorial on how to paint something like zombies where you want a dark, dirty look on your miniatures. I still can't see myself achieving this with Army Painter Speedpaints, so if you can come up with a convincing approach I would very much appreciate it!

    Maybe it was because too many people labeled these paints as contrast killers but the outrage so many people showed about the reactivation issue made no sense to me. It felt like they had gone to the hardware store and purchased a screwdriver and got mad when it wasn’t very effective when used as a hammer. It’s just like anything else, products have their own strengths and weaknesses. You just have to figure out how to use those properties to your advantage.

    I've been playing with speed paints and have to say the whole reactivation thing hasn't really happened to me.
    I tried over a zenithal, I was happy with the gradients but everything felt to dark. I've upped the lightness to a brighter white and less contrast and whilst better no where near as smooth or vibrant as yours.
    Over straight white it sometimes feel too bright, although I'm sat looking at a model I'm thinking looks pretty awesome at the moment.
    Do you think the matte seal before adding speedpaint helps the paint move better than if you just did it over the zenithal and wash?

    All the comments here waffling on and factoring in waiting time for drying and the like... utter foolishness. Use a bit of common sense, it's 20 mins of painting effort, not 20 mins setting a stop watch from start to go. Who the hell ever factors in drying time, or expects this to be 20 mins start to finish.
    Bottom line, thus tute is all about showing how speedpaints can be used as a single coat solution with some care taken to the undercoat to provide a natural gradient in speedpaint colour. And it does a great job at that.
    And to those other fools whining about setup and clean-up of an airbrush, totally overinflating the actual time it should take... pull your head in or learn how to be quick and effective with the airbrush as a tool.

    So to look amazing with speedpaint or contrast you need 300 steps to paint before applying speedpaint vs 300 steps after base coating with the normal paints. It looks the same effort and time to me. I apply the contrast or speedpaint above the primer and that's it. That is what these paints were made to do.

Factor in setting up the airbrush, prep, cleaning it afterwards, waiting for the ink to dry and then, only then, can you begin to paint.

    I guess army painter are quite happy to lose out on the massive market of people who would use speed paint in other ways, and they made sure that they wouldn't buy it by making it unusable for anyone doing more than one coat of paint.
